Patient Update

I recently found out that the patient I treated in full arrest went back into cardiac arrest as was pronounced dead in the ER. I thought we had a chance with that one.

  2. The first time I did CPR on a patient, she made it. That was 15 years ago. I don't know if I've ever had that happen since...

  3. I had a good "save" rate going when I first became a medic. Almost every other one. Boy has that ratio dropped!
